Since Jungle Jim’s International Market is such a wonderfully mad world of flavors, we decided to create a Podcast to talk about it!
Join us on a super safari as we explore the world of food, plus discuss people, art, culture, and more! We'll also be peeling back the curtain to show you some secrets about Jungle Jim's. We hope you're as excited as we are. Stay tuned as we release future episodes.

Golf Carts and Wine Tastings, what kind of store is this!?
This week, we're joined by the LEGEND Billy Southerland - Billy is launching a new custom golf cart company right down the road from us at Jungle in Fairfield. Billy is hugely responsible for me getting to make the Jungle Jim's Podcast, and I absolutely love when he comes by the studio. Also make sure to look into his other business, Iron Road! Billy is the best. Then, returning favorites Michael and Amanda join us from our wine department to host a sampling and talk about some sweet upcoming events in our wine department. Don't forget to come try some wines with us every Wednesday for Back that Glass Up. More events are located on JungleJims.com - come hang out!

Fruit Proms and Baseballs
This week, we kick off with some app-exclusive deals in the Jungle Jim's app. It's now available on iOS and Android! Don't forget about our Eclipse Event on April 8th. Then we meet store manager Frank's daughter Yolanda and her husband Lamar to talk about their band Live Your Dream, as well as talk about her upcoming performances for the Cincinnati Reds! Maybe she'll even sing for us! Then, Zachariah from Urban Artifact comes over to talk about Urban's new beer, Capy Snacks, a delicious fruit punch sour, as well as their upcoming Faerie Ball/Fruit Prom, hosted by me! What a great week!

Customer Reviews
What an intro!
Intro slaps!! Certified banger!!!
Wholesome and Fun
I just started listening to this show as a result of following Mark on Twitter. His enthusiasm for everything he talks about on the show is contagious, and the YouTube counterpart to this podcast is also great. Highly recommend checking it out.
The show is as unique as the store!
I love listening to the history of this store, getting information about unique products, where the store will be going in the future and what the store has done for the community. In a recent podcast I listened to it was mentioned what could be done with the podcast room when not in use. You need some animals that you can set up as props to look like they’re creating a podcast when you don’t have people in there.
